Prompt 2:

Here's a thought: if your performance is good enough to warrant an entire PT prompt asking for who *else* should be in the running for MVP, you've made it pretty clear you were the best on the ice this season. As much as I love seeing Time pop up here in the conversation, you can't just lump someone like Logan Webb in with the "top point scorer so MVP by default" category. The season's only 50 goal scorer led his team and the league from day one, despite playing on the wing, where FHM notoriously makes it difficult to compete with centers. It's the first time in recent memory that a winger has topped the charts, and I'd hate to see him written off as "default forward" when his accomplishments have been a statistical anomaly.

But as so many here have stated, we're not here to talk about the best player, we're here to talk about the most valuable player, and that's where Webb really shines. What most people don't see, and what doesn't appear on the scoresheet every sim, is that there wouldn't be a Pride without Spidey leading the team in the locker room. Taking up the alternate captaincy almost from the moment he joined the team, he's rallied players to activity, advocated for their accomplishments above his own, and become the face of "team before player" for eight seasons. There isn't a stat on the index that measures the kind of value he brings to his team, and adding the best performance by a skater this season on top of it makes him the clear MVP.
